Nordic Laparoscopic Devices Market Country Insights
Based on region, the Nordic laparoscopic devices market is further segmented into the into Sweden, Denmark, Norway, and Finland. The Denmark held the largest share in 2024.
Concerning laparoscopic surgeries, every country in the Nordic region is pursuing laparoscopic approaches. 2022 data across the EU including Denmark and Finland indicate that a large proportion of laparoscopic cholecystectomies (removal of gall bladder) and hysterectomies are completed minimally invasive. For example, Denmark and Finland reported in 2022 that over two-thirds of all hysterectomies are laparoscopic. Denmark and Finland are also reporting high shares of laparoscopic appendectomies - over 90% in Denmark in 2022. Denmark has high rates of laparoscopic repair of inguinal hernia but had dropped below 50% in Sweden in 2022 and the percentage of inguinal hernia repairs performed laparoscopically was reported to be reduced for Finland. Bariatric surgeries are also a notable area of laparoscopic application in the Nordic region, driven by increasing obesity rates. The Nordic Obesity Surgery Cohort, which includes data up to 2010 and beyond from Sweden, Denmark, Norway, and Finland, reported over 57,000 individuals undergoing bariatric surgery within the cohort. Sweden contributed the largest number of bariatric surgery patients to this cohort. More recent data from the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry, covering 2019-2021, shows that in Sweden, Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGBP) has traditionally dominated, with Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG) stabilizing around 50% of primary procedures. In Norway for the same period, SG and RYGBP were reported at comparable rates, with One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB) constituting 8.5% of primary procedures in 2021. For instance, in 2019, 47 operations per 100,000 inhabitants were performed in Sweden and 50 per 100,000 in Norway.
